Yorkshire law firm Ramsdens has appointed experienced residential property lawyer Jessica Duffy as a partner in its York office.
She joins from her role as Head of Legal at Doncaster-based property developer Strata Homes and prior to that the Head of Conveyancing at another York based law firm.
With 18 years experience of legal practice throughout Yorkshire, Jessica knows the York conveyancing market well and is experienced in all matters relevant in the area, including sales, purchases, transfers of equity, remortgage and rights of way.
Commenting on her appointment, Jessica said “The residential property team at Ramsdens has an established excellent reputation for having personable, approachable lawyers committed to providing clear, practical advice. I’m very pleased to join such a renowned team to grow our conveyancing and residential practice to benefit clients throughout York and North Yorkshire.”
Ramsdens opened its York office in 2018, after taking over York based law firm Burn and Co and has since expanded with several new hires to service its growing client base in the area. The office is one of 11 across Yorkshire.
Lindsey Frith, joint CEO of Ramsdens says: “We are thrilled to welcome Jessica to our team in York. By combining Jessica’s local knowledge and visibility with a strong legal background, we can expand and enhance our residential property offering in the city and ensure continued momentum as we expand our legal offering throughout North and East Yorkshire. Jessica’s in-house experience working with a housebuilder will also be particularly valuable in advising clients throughout newbuild transactions.”
